In a computer in which control software is installed, a display capability information receiving section conducts an information receiving process, receiving display capability information of a display device from a display capability information receiving/sending section of a printer beforehand. In printing job information settings, a display capability match/comparison section conducts a comparison process, comparing a user name and a printing job name inputted manually by a user or automatically by a job name and other data receiving section, with the display capability information received in the information receiving process, and determining whether the indication of the names is suitable for the display capability or not. A comparison result processing section receives the above comparison result, and when the indication is not suitable for the display capability, it conducts a notifying process, notifying the user to input the names using characters suitable for the display capability. Thus, user input setting support is provided so as to set printing job information at a printing data supply device using characters suitable for the display capability of the display device of a printing output device. |
